<p>I'm pretty surm the arm requires higher voltage than a single 1.5V AA. A 700MHz will only pull a fraction of an amp (think around 150-300 mA) so a pair of AA's might run it for a while.<br>
Can't wait for LadyAda to pack one into a mintyboost can :-)<br>

Aaron, don't give up the arduino yet. The combo of the 2 is friking awesome. <br>
Laptop in an altoids tin.... hmm.....</p>
